But what if you could build one with for the cost of a pizza?
Z = V / I θ = atan2(Q, I) R_series = |Z| * cos(θ) X_series = |Z| * sin(θ) If X > 0 → L = X / (2πf) If X < 0 → C = -1 / (2πf * X) Create A Low-Cost- High-Accuracy LCR Meter With An STM32 MCU
If you repair electronics, design filters, or just sort through salvaged components, you know the pain: multimeters measure resistance OK, but capacitance? ESR? Inductance? For that, you need an LCR meter—and real ones cost $100–$500. But what if you could build one with for the cost of a pizza
